The Hohenzollerns and the Nazis : a history of collaboration
Malinowski, Stephan, 1966-2025
Book
In this brilliant social study, Stephan Malinowski describes how, from the 1920s onwards, the Hohenzollern family and the Nazis moved closer together, forging symbolic political alliances. Despite their many differences in terms of manners and origins, the old aristocracy and new movement came together in their mutual hatred of democracy and the Weimar Republic. This was the cement that bound these very different people and milieus. Malinowski's politically and legally explosive book about this collaboration is as cleverly composed as it is insightful - a joy and intellectual delight to read, despite the horrors. And Malinowski's thorough research and clear arguments, which can also be understood as a response to the constant threat of legal action by the House of Hohenzollern, are also very persuasive.
